Senior Seminar Update Over the past year, the district has revised the curriculum for Senior Seminar and the requirements to pass what has been previously known as the Culminating Exhibition. Prior to this year, students had to meet standard on four components of CE: the Reflective Letter, the Project Proposal, the Senior Project, and the Presentation. Those four benchmark requirements have been replaced by 14 components, all taught in the Senior Seminar, a class which seniors take in either the fall or spring semester of their senior year. All students must meet standard on all 14 components of Senior Seminar by the end of the academic semester to meet this graduation requirement. The 14 components are: Digital Story Reflection Log National Career Readiness Certification
Research Log Personal Development Plans Reflective Letter
Scholarship Application FAFSA Worksheet Job Application
College Application Project Interview
Résumé Project Presentation In addition to these changes in required components, there are other major changes. First of all, the project presentation will no longer be made before a panel of staff and community members; instead, students will be videotaping their presentations and sharing them with others electronically or on the Web. Secondly, the Senior Project is intended to have a narrower focus, with a 20-hour time requirement compared to the 45 hours previously required. Another major change is that student work will be completed predominantly in WEB 2.0 and related applications. Despite these significant changes, Senior Seminar will still address the state and district learning goals related to CE. These include communicating effectively, being able to apply core concepts and principles, forming reasoned judgments and solving problems, reflecting and self-evaluating, directing one’s own learning, thinking logically and analytically, and being prepared for the world of work and professional opportunities. While our students will work to address these goals, they will also be developing additional 21st Century skills, including collaboration skills, information and media literacy, and information and media technology skills. Since passing Senior Seminar is a graduation requirement, students and parents need to be vigilant in making sure that all 14 components are met by the end of the semester. If a student or parent has any questions about any of the components of Senior Seminar, please contact the Senior Seminar teacher. After contacting the teacher, if a concern or question remains, contact Mr. Don Lichty, the Jackson administrator who oversees Senior Seminar. On behalf of the administration of JHS, I wish students, staff, and parents a wonderful Winter Break and a Happy New Year for 2013! Don Lichty, Assistant Principal, Jackson HS

Statement from State Superintendent Randy Dorn on MarijuanaStatement from State Superintendent Randy Dorn on Marijuana
Recent anecdotal reports from school districts suggest an increase in marijuana
possession and consumption among young people, especially after the passage of
Initiative 502, which legalizes small quantities of the drug for people age 21 and
older. Below is a statement from State Superintendent Randy Dorn on what the law
means to public schools.
The passage of I-502 changes nothing in public schools in Washington state. Certain drugs, including marijuana,
continue to be illegal on school property and to anyone younger than 21 years old.
To receive federal funds, districts must abide by the Safe and Drug-Free Schools and Communities Act and must
have a drug- and tobacco-free workplace and a similar student policy in place. Each district’s policy has a number
of common requirements about marijuana and other drugs, such as not allowing any student to
possess,
distribute,
manufacture, or
be under the influence.
Any student caught will be disciplined according to local district policy and local law enforcement as required.
Fines can also be doubled if the arrest occurs within 1,000 feet of a school facility.
I-502 changes state law but has no effect on federal law.
Some people think that a medical marijuana card is similar to a prescription for a controlled substance and can be
brought to schools or the workplace. That is false. Having a medical marijuana card does not mean a student or an
employee, or anyone for that matter, can bring marijuana on school grounds.
Students need to be engaged and prepared for school. Marijuana doesn’t allow them to be
either of those things. Marijuana dulls the brain. It can lead to paranoia, short-term memory
loss, and depression.
And for those under 21, it is illegal.

SENIORS: Continue working on and completing your college applications. Some seniors have already been admitted to their college of choice! Don’t delay; use the holiday break to take that task off your “To Do” checklist. REMEMBER: Submitting the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) is necessary to be considered for any federal financial aid, for some scholarships, and for work-study programs at the colleges. Go to the website and become familiar with the application prior to the January 1, 2013, deadline. January 1 is the first date your application can be submitted. Funds are given out on a first come, first served basis. The earlier you apply, the higher the probability of qualifying for more financial aid. Apply for a PIN number (your electronic signature) before you complete the FAFSA. For your pin number, visit www.pin.ed.gov. For the FAFSA application, visit www.fafsa.ed.gov. Need help filling out the FAFSA? Bring your financial information, including latest tax records, to one of these local events: January 12—Everett High School Library, 2416 Colby Ave. Contact EHS in January for time. January 17—Cascade High School, 801 Casino Road. Contact CHS in January for time. January 26—Everett Community College, Main Campus, Shuksan Hall, Room 141. Time: 10:00 a.m. For more information on sites and help sessions, visit the following websites: College Goal Sunday main website: http://www.collegegoalsundayusa.org Washington locations: http://www.collegegoalsundaywa.org/where.html
JUNIORS: Counselors met with juniors for two days prior to the holiday break to hand out their PSAT results and guide them in setting up their PSAT Quickstart account. This resource is invaluable in helping students understand their scores and prediction range of how they might score on the SAT, wrong answers in comparison to correct answers, their academic strengths, their academic weaknesses, areas to work on and suggestions for building academic skills, personality profile based on their answers to a personality inventory, major programs in college appealing to their personality profile, and types of colleges—size, location, programs, interests, demographics, recreational information, etc. Parents, ask your student to go into their Quickstart account and review that information with you. If researched and utilized with the goal of fine-tuning post-high school education plans, this is a fantastic free resource for assisting with that process.

SOPHOMORES: Counselors met with sophomores in October to present a lesson on career interests and possible options to research based on their responses to an interest inventory on WOIS (Washington Occupation Inventory of Skills). After completing the inventory, they researched potential careers and educational programs that would lead them to that type of career. Parents, ask your students about the careers and educational programs they investigated during this lesson. This could lead to an invigorating discussion of careers and what their long-term goals beyond high school might be. If your student is a sophomore or junior this year and is interested in applying to Sno-Isle Tech Skills Center for the 2013-2014 school year, January is an important month for two reasons: 1. Sno-Isle Tech Skills Center Open House—Tuesday, January 15, 4:30–6:30 p.m. This is a great opportunity for
students and parents/guardians to explore the programs offered (http://www.snoisletech.com/index.htm). 2. January 15, 7:00 p.m., Sno-Isle applications go “live” online for completing and submitting for the 2013-2014
school year. The deadline for applications is Friday, February 8, 2013. Any questions, please contact Marianne Allen in the Career Center at [email protected] or call 425-385-7028.
FRESHMEN: Counselors met with freshmen in October as an introduction to Freshman Focus. Students played a Jeopardy style game that incorporated important High School & Beyond information. This lesson provided some guidance around decision making and planning for each year of high school and began the process of thinking about post-high school educational plans. Parents, review your student’s current online progress report and talk to them about the importance of academic success in their freshman year in order to successfully continue moving forward toward high school graduation. Ask your student these questions: How many credits are required to graduate from JHS? What other requirements besides credits are required for graduation? Name two requirements needed for applying to a four-year college that
are not required to graduate from Jackson High School. How does a student see her/his counselor if the student would like to
talk with her/him?

Henry M. Jackson Is a Member of Microsoft® IT Academy
The Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) and Microsoft® have
partnered to provide the Microsoft IT Academy (ITA) to all Washington high
schools. Microsoft ITA will bridge the gap between the world of education and the
world of work. It will boost science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) education state-wide, as well as
the employability and global competitiveness of students and the future workforce. The program provides training
and certification in a number of Microsoft products as well as advanced topics including programming, web
development, and database development.
Microsoft® Office Specialist certifications
With the launch of Microsoft Office 2010, Microsoft Office Specialist exams are more popular than ever. A
Microsoft Office Specialist certification helps validate proficiency in Microsoft Office 2010 and meets the demand
for the most up-to-date skills on some of the latest Microsoft technologies. As of November 30, 2012:
Three students have earned PowerPoint 2010 Certification and are now recognized as a Microsoft Office
Specialists for Office PowerPoint 2010.
Four students who have earned Word 2010 Certification are now recognized as Microsoft Office Specialists for

One student enrolled in Programming One class and earned certification for Software Development
Fundamental (C#).
One JHS staff earned certification for the Visual Communication using Adobe Photoshop (CS5).
Earn a Microsoft® certification to enhance career development path and growth opportunities
Achieving a Microsoft certification (official industry certification) is a great way for students to enter the IT
workforce with proven technical skills. According to the Annual Microsoft Certification Program Survey, 51% of
hiring managers use or consider certification as hiring criteria. Microsoft certification exams measure one’s ability
to perform real-world tasks. These rigorous exams go well beyond testing product knowledge. Test takers are
presented with situations in which they must apply their knowledge, analyze technical solutions, solve problems,
and make decisions.
For more information on the Microsoft ITA at Jackson High School, contact Ms. Smith at [email protected].

Department: English 2 and English 2 Honors How long have you been at Jackson? This is my 7th year at JHS; 19th year in teaching. Where did you go to school? My first undergraduate degree was a BA in business administration from Arizona State. I then earned a construction management degree from Edmonds CC. I earned my master’s and teaching credential from Western Washington U. What is your teaching philosophy? I have two quotes, one on my website and one in my room: “We are learning to be critical consumers of information and sophisticated citizens.” And “Education should include the knowledge of what to do with it.” So if I analyze those: My purpose is to be a mentor to our young people to help them navigate life so they can achieve their dreams. Tell us a little about your family at home. I have a 33-year-old son who graduated from Gonzaga and is now a vice-president of a local Seattle bank in downtown Seattle. I adopt German Shepherds from local rescue organizations. Our Molly passed away this past summer and we just adopted a German Shepherd mix: 2-year-old Nicky, who was saved from a Los Angeles high kill shelter after having puppies. Hobbies? Reading and tennis. I play, coach, and watch tennis. Favorite TV show and/or movie: We don’t watch much TV but love movies. Too many to list. Favorite book or book that you are reading right now: Wow, that’s tough. The book that changed my life in high school was Walden by Thoreau. However, in my adult life I discovered Ayn Rand and have read all of her works; my favorite of hers is Fountainhead because I was in construction before I became a teacher. I’m Czechoslovakian so I also love Franz Kafka and have read all of his novels. How do you order your coffee? During the holidays I splurge on Starbucks venti lowfat eggnog lattes. Favorite vacation spot: My husband and I just had our honeymoon after five years of marriage and we went to Maui. It was amazing. I played tennis every day. Favorite sport team: Gonzaga basketball. My family has season tickets to Seattle U. basketball and we love college hoops. Favorite holiday: Christmas because of all the traditions my family has had. However, I abhor the over-commercialization of the holiday so I’m starting to like Thanksgiving more. Favorite food: Lobster because I don’t have an opportunity to eat it very often. Other language(s) you speak? Czech If you could have a super power, what would it be? To make people be kind to one another so there would be no violence. If you could spend a day with someone famous (living or not) who would he/she be? Thomas Jefferson: I’m from a family of immigrants so the U.S. Constitution is very important to us. I’m amazed by the ability of our founding fathers to craft a document with wording that has stood the test of time. What is something about you that most people do not know? English is my second language. Any other interesting trivia about you that you would like to share? I had a successful career in real estate development and construction for 14 years before I became a teacher. I gave it up to do something meaningful with my life. What advice would you like to give to the students and/or parents? Gosh, I’m still figuring it all out myself, but from what I’ve seen in my classroom…
Parents: Love your children despite their flaws. Teenage years are tough, but if you love them through it you will have a great relationship later on. Be involved; help them with their homework even when they don’t want it.
Students: Never, ever give up on yourselves. Each of you has amazing talents. If I may borrow a quote from Thoreau: “If you have built castles in the air, your work need not be lost; that is where they should be. Now build the foundations under them.”
